Activitystrea.ms support for JSON feeds was just released. This is what the output looks like. Our webfinger API returns a link to the appropriate Activitystream. (In the year that has passed it appears that community support for Atom activity streams has waned).

Looking Forward

We are looking forward to seeing developer adoption of these technologies.

Also, we believe that the work we have done on PourOver so far will be beneficial on a long-term basis. For example, if a new syndication format is released in the future, PourOver can be modified by us or the community to consume the new format without much difficulty. The fact PourOver is open source, is real-time (because it natively consumes PuSH), and can process a wide variety of inbound formats makes it quite a useful building block for future development.
